That's good to know; thanks for sharing.

Love to hear that something worked and the homeowner was happy. It seems this is a rare event...at least on Houzz.

Cambria quartz is my #1 recommend for my client projects. Not only do they offer a very wide selection of patterns, but the installation and customer service are excellent. Nice to hear they were willing to replace the entire counter top if they weren't able to fix it.

This is how differently people think. You didn't care for the spots, and I would be bugged by the larger stripes, lol. (So I wouldn't pick quartz, myself). Nice kitchen though!

I'm happy that the company took care of you and that you are no longer seeing spots :-) Cheers!

luvourhome, I used to have a very uniform granite countertop, so wanted something that was completely opposite (at least in my mind).

Yes, it's a good thing that we all like different styles ... keeps things interesting.

As I said, the owner of store where we bought Sonoma Tilemaker bcksplsh tile knows one of Cambria's principals. When I met her, I told her we'd bought Cambria, she said they are very ethical.

In getting ready to order Brittanicca as well. How did they get the spots out? I see a few in every slab, but still Iove it!

joviboys - They use a little drill to remove the surface of the spot and then use a filler and sealer. You cannot tell that anything had been done, except the spots are gone. There are "spots" in Brittanicca, but the two I had removed looked very out of place and different from the others,

Wow! I'm ordering from the Seattle area. Which area did your come from?

I'm in the Toronto area. But the customer service is amazing. They really stand behind their products. And if I were ever to get a chip, they repair for free.

That's great news stoufmason! We are also in the Toronto area, and will be ordering Cambria's Brittanicca as well. I love your kitchen!

I have a dark concrete color Cambria countertop which had the opposite color problem: a small white inclusion. The fabricator came out, drilled out the offending part, and filled it with clear superglue. Nothing fancy, just superglue. He then shaved it flush with a razor blade, and it's been invisible ever since. Great product, responsible installer.

Stoufmason, congrats on the successful resolution of your problem! Kudos to Cambria & your fabricator/installer for their business ethics & response.

Your kitchen is stunning. May I ask what color the glass tile backsplash is please?

Thank you kocampbell. I got the backsplash at Home Depot. It's called Arctic Fog.

I am in the seattle area and used cambria on two occasions, and have found them to be really good, super professional. Floform is the name of the cambria company in the kent valley.

Is the finish the same where the spots have been lightened? Do they feel different?

No Joseph, you can see or feel any difference!

Nice trick. Let's hope they share how.
